I can't wait! I spot a cute lake house that's caught my eye in your first screenshot. It's going to be so difficult to pick an initial plot, there's so many good locations.

Soon I get my forever home. It's a mere few months away. I can barely contain my excitement.

I'm finally farming up mount grinds I've been putting off for well over a decade. I love these old mounts so much. I just wish draenei didn't always have a chronic case of Tiny Mounts. It's more than a little painful for 99% of mounts.

I'm so happy to finally have these two after so long.

The new lean emote's great. I get to hang out with Brann in delves while I wait for CDs to come back before a last boss.

I hope it works! Good luck!

Enjoy once it updates for you! I'm holding off until tomorrow to play but I had a lot of fun checking out the new emote in the meantime. I'm excited!

The new lean emotes are SO fun. I've been going through my raid farm alts just to look at them all. I love that they have idle loops as well. What a fun addition.

After fighting this wall of a boss all week I am free and ready for Season 3

A screenshot of the achievement 'let me solo him', a rather brutal fight you have to complete alone with no help to achieve it.

Good luck on the rest of the mounts you're after!

Vaard's 7th legion set is finally being retired as he himself retires to buy that coffee shop and pick up some for-hire work on the side.

There's still placeholder pieces and the belt eludes me, but this is the vibe of his new 'affordable average guy adventurer' set. Art of this will be next.

Congrats! It's a lovely older mount.

This bountiful event is a lot of fun.

Rivendare's Charger in particular has elude me for well over a decade after seeing it drop once in my noob days but I didn't roll on it, not knowing both factions could use it. That cursed memory has been erased. I can rest easy and no longer be haunted by it.

If I don't get my belt drop by tuesday I'll probably go ahead and post the new mog even if it still has some placeholder pieces. Vault RNG for mythic tints has not been kind to me the last month of trying to get what I'm after.

I might not have sketches yet, but I can at least post the new mog!

I can't wait to see. Once housing's out I would love to have a masterpost for people to post their rooms in if they want to show. I would love to see what everyone makes! I'm as excited to see people's creations as I am to get my hands on it myself.

Vaard @vaard.bsky.social · Jun 6

Absolutely! It won't be the whole house but I'm definitely going to attempt a coffee shop nook somewhere in the building.

I can't wait to see what everyone's going to make once we get it!

No name planned yet but you bet I'm turning a whole section of my house into a coffee shop! I can't wait until we get our hands on housing. I want to see what everyone comes up with!

After 7 years in the same mog, I'm finally retiring Vaard from the 7th Legion set and retiring him from the Stormwind army as a whole. He's getting that coffee shop and moving to a more basic adventuring armor set that I can show off later once I get the last pieces for it.

I'll get a reveal soon!

One hope for WoW housing is the ability to add decoration permissions to friends. One thing a friend and I loved to do is hide a cursed little doll in each other's houses in XIV for the other to find occasionally, and it turned into a multi-year long tradition.

I'd love to be able to do that in WoW

I am so excited for player housing. The recent player previews look great and I can't wait to get my hands on it. It's gone above and beyond what I dared to hope for out of WoW.

Regardless of how limited/bountiful the furniture themes are at launch, I can't wait to start fabricating stuff.

Guess who's slowly starting to draw again. I have so much rust to knock off.

Front facing Vaard is still something I need to figure out, but it's getting there.

Suspenders are not a bad idea for draenei when it comes to their tails and clothing fit.
